Bacio (chocolate-hazelnut-crunch), salty caramel, and white chocolate lemon in a cup--ambrosia! We were in Charlottesville for 3 nights and found Splendora's the 2nd for dessert. We were back the next night too, the gelato was so fabulous. In fact, I have tried various restaurant's "gelato" outside of Italy and always have been disappointed. This was the real thing and just... More

Yum, yum, yum! Gelato is delicious! Wonderful flavors! Great location! Friendly service! Had to visit twice during 2 night stay in Charlottesville! I highly recommend!

it's great, a wonderful owner, pleasant staff & a good product. space is real nice, urban, but soft. a great treat.........

They feature a large selection of homemade gelatos (all the regular flavors plus a few unique additions) as well as specialty coffee drinks. The dining area is small and cozy but our party of three had no problem finding a spot to sit and enjoy even though they... More

The gelato here is quite excellent as is the range of flavors available. The store itself is rather narrow but generally we get some gelatos and walk around outside as this is located on the Downtown (pedestrian) Mall. Overall I'm not inclined to say best gelato outside of Italy as others have claimed, but it is rather delicious. The prices... More
